The Felis Icarus Project

The Felis Icarus
Project is a privately funded, independent research facility in
which scientific knowledge is pursued through the medium of pure
thought, uncontaminated by bruising and humiliating contact with
conventional reality. Much can be known by thought alone.

Our first project,
research into historical reports of feline flight, has become
an on-going effort to facilitate the restoration of this well-documented
capability. The project also inspired the name of our research
facility, which is named after Icarus, the son of the inventor
Daedalus. While imprisoned by his employer, the legendary King
Minos of Crete, Daedalus made wings of wax and feathers for himself
and his son in order to effect their escape from the island.

Since the inception
of the Felis Icarus Project in 1987, the scope of the project
has been enlarged to push the envelope in a number of fields.
